I am very happy to say that Poppy (above) finally had her abscess removed.  YAY!!  She still has a heart murmur but her surgery went well & she's been recovering now for over a week.  She's on relatively high doses of pain relief and still on daily antibiotics to stop any repeat infection.  We certainly don't want that to happen again.  I'm really hoping that this is a whole new start for Poppy - her third chance for a happy life.  Poppy is just adorable!  We call her "big bird" as her nose colour looks like a big beak & she's often lying in her hay filled tray like it's a nest. 

Lulu (pictured above) was having daily tummy problems.  One really bad time she was straining and making noises.  She had xrays taken but that didn't show up much.  The vets did feel a strange lump around her surgery area so she possibly also has an internal abscess.  She's now on antibiotics and seems to be a little better.  We give her the entire hallway each evening & half the kitchen to run around.  She also now wants the adjacent bathroom which she quite likes to visit.  She's a friendly bunny to me but terrified of visitors to the house.

Izzy (Isabelle - pictured above)) seems to be the only bun who doesn't have to take medication..... yet.  She's a happy bunny that's taken to sleeping in our paper recycling box.  A huge bunny in a little box - pretty funny!  Izzy does sneeze quite a bit & white snot comes out of her left nostril.  Nothing from the right but the left is always wet.  I need to have that checked out too.  It would be great if we could get rid of that problem for her as it obviously annoys her.  She does like having her nose wiped though so I help her out with that.
